Have you heard that one month of the New Year is the most popular time of year to file for divorce? It is not a rumor. The divorce month is January and is nicknamed by the legal community as”Divorce Month.”
Many legal experts believe that the reason for this trend boils down to one idea: People don’t want to get divorced during the holidays. If couples, especially those with children, have started to consider divorce before the holidays, they make a point of staying married through the end of the year so their family can have one last holiday season together before they split. Watch out for these signs that your marriage is headed for divorce.?
Certified divorce consultant Cathy Meyer adds: “Absolutely. January consistently sees the most divorce filings. It just really amazes me, though it probably shouldn’t. The divorce month is January for me. My own husband left in January.”
Many people, when confronted with the prospect of divorce, want to know how they will maintain their standard of living. Who gets the house? How can we sell the house fast?
Once the decision to divorce is made, they want to sell their house in Cedar Rapids fast and start a new life.

Generally, the Court will divide the property and debts of the marriage on a 50-50% basis. The Court can give more than 50% to one spouse if the Court has good reason to do this.
If there is child custody involved, I suspect the courts put more emphasis on keeping a parent and children in the house when it comes to settlement.
